Fluxbox problem

[root]

After upgrading a system from 14.2 to 15.0 stable, fluxbox
no longer shows what I think is called the toolbar at
the top of the screen. I am using exactly the same .fluxbox
stuff. In the startup I generate 6 xterms on top of each
other. In the previous fluxbox, the bar at the top
showed an entry for each of those xterms. In the new
version I see only one xterm in the toolbar. By
moving the xterms down I can see all of them are
stacked, but I have no other way to access them.
Each xterm fills my screen.

I have searched for a solution, but nothing I have
found changes the screen.

I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Exit fluxbox and take a look at file ~/.fluxbox/init

In that file I have these items:

session.screen0.toolbar.widthPercent: 100
session.screen0.toolbar.onhead: 0
session.screen0.toolbar.autoHide: false
session.screen0.toolbar.tools: workspacename, prevworkspace, nextworkspace, iconbar, systemtray, prevwindow, nextwindow, clock
session.screen0.toolbar.maxOver: true
session.screen0.toolbar.height: 0
session.screen0.toolbar.layer: Bottom
session.screen0.toolbar.alpha: 255
session.screen0.toolbar.visible: true
session.screen0.toolbar.placement: TopCenter

Backup init, cange the items above and see if that fixes the issue.
Must be done while fluxbox is not active.

Thanks for responding. That didn't fix the problem. I only see one
"xterm" in the center even though all the others are stacked
behind.

I found the problem. The machine I was working on has an Nvidia
card with TwinView output. I was doing the install using a
1080p monitor, while the other monitor (which was off) was a 4K.

When I turn both monitors on, the display is perfect.
